Four spread picks were in play for Jason this week and
things went pretty darn well. He took Cincinnati (+2.5), Dallas (+2.5), Titans
(+4), and Panthers (-7).

Two of the dogs cashed, with the Bengals squeaking out a win
in Detroit and the Cowboys shutting down the Eagles in Philadelphia. Carolina
smashed St. Louis at home, though a sweep wasn't in the cards thanks to a dud
performance from Tennessee at home against San Francisco.

ATS Record: 18-15-1

Joe
Freda

It was a
mixed bag of results for Joe. He focused primarily on total plays, banking on
the ‘Under’ 45.5 in the San Diego/Jacksonville game, the ‘Under’ 50 in the
Chicago/Washington matchup, and the ‘Over’ 42 in the Tampa Bay/Atlanta battle.
His one ATS NFL pick came on the Chiefs (-6) at home.

Joe went
1-1 with the ‘Unders’ and nailed the ‘Over’ play in the Falcons game. However,
Kansas City couldn't come through for backers despite a straight up win.

ATS Record: 3-5-2

Joe
Catalano

There was
only one selection on the board for our other beloved Joe and it came in Green
Bay's home date with Cleveland. He took the points with the visiting Browns, a
popular sports pick given all of the injuries to the Packers' offense, but Green Bay
was still able to win and cover.

ATS
Record: 2-2

Steven
Suarez

Fun week
for me, can't lie there. I backed covers for Buffalo (+9.5), Pittsburgh (-1),
and the New York Giants (-3.5) in Week 7.

However,
after building a significant lead, the Patriots couldn't hold on. New York
mustered a comeback and even went on to win straight up in overtime. Rex Ryan
was understandably thrilled to get one up on his favorite man to hate, Bill
Belichick.

ATS Record: 5-6

Steve
Merrill

Steve was
also on the Panthers and they ended up being one of the easiest winners of the
week. Not only did St. Louis lose badly, but they also lost starting
quarterback Sam Bradford for the season.

Coming in,
Carolina was favored by at least a touchdown in the NFL odds, and that did scare away some
potential backers. You definitely weren't disappointed if you did lay the chalk
though, as Cam Newton was efficient as ever and the defense stepped up as well.
